Do you have any of your personal information out there on the internet? Are you concerned about your privacy?  Do you own a blog or a website, participate on Facebook and Twitter or use your credit card to buy products online?  If you do (which I'm sure the majority of us are) you need to be aware of your privacy rights and the laws that protect it here at Olender Feldman.  Invasion of your privacy can be very scary.  Unfortunately having your information out there on the internet makes it that much easier for someone to invade your privacy. Invasion is when someone unlawfully intrudes into your private affairs, or discloses private information, or uses your name for personal gain.  Since most of us have our names out there this can happen very quickly and easily, most of the time without our knowledge for a long time.

I have recently been sent 2 Packaways Multipurpose Storage Boxes to try out and review. These definitely came at the right time.We are expecting our second child in a few months and have started to process of organizing, pulling stuff out of storage and finding new places for new things.The Packaways are the perfect solution.They are so easy to use and actually set up automatically.All you do is unfold them and simply press the bottom down to engage the locking tab and you have an instant storage box. The nice thing to is that there are indented lines where the folds should be and bendable corners so closing the box is a breeze, not tape needed!It is so nice not having to tear off a huge strip of tape everytime we need to open the boxes.We have been re-using them and of course I keep thinking of things I need to add to them. When they are not is use the fold up nice and thin.

I am very excited to be working with a company like Footminders who is focused on our health and comfort. Three years ago I gave birth to my first son and had that all to common “my foot grew” pregnancy symptom.Well turns out it wasn’t a symptom that went away after delivery.My foot didn’t actually grow it just happen that I lost my arch due to a loosening ligament from those pregnancy hormones.Well after losing my arch I started to develop hip and back pain which results in snapping hip syndrome.It has been a battle to find shoes with ample arch support that didn’t cost a fortune.

Due to the popularity of my recent post: Saving Money: Make Homemade Garlic Bread and Freeze it, I have decided to start sharing my other homemade recipes and ways you can save money on your grocery bill and your health.  Buying frozen foods like pancakes and waffles is a waste of money, you are simply paying for convenience and something that has added preservatives.  Some may argue that making your own pancakes and waffles take to much 'time' and that frozen products take away the daily hassle of cooking for those with busy mornings.  Well I'm here to tell you that making homemade pancakes takes no time at all and in one morning you can prepare a huge batch, freeze them and create your own frozen pancakes you can quickly grab out of the freezer any day of the week, just like the store bought ones.  By doing so you will know what your family is eating, control what goes into them and you will reduce waste by not constantly purchasing those cardboard boxes!  Also, if you h…

Are you a small business owner looking to expand and grow? One of the best ways to help expand your business is to hold your own line of small business credit.  Building your own line of business credit will allow you to easily make the purchases you need to help maintain and run a successful business.  Another big benefit of holding your own line of business credit is that it can save you from the disasters of using cash, travelers’ checks or using your personal credit.  Using these other types of payments can cause you a major headache when it comes to balancing your finances, tracking your purchases and of course your precious time.  If you have staff members that do your purchasing it will allow them the freedom to do so without the need to constantly ask for cash or your personal card.  Other great benefits of a business credit card are reduced paperwork and time spent reconciling accounts.  Unlike cash, you will need to make sure balances are paid on time to prevent unneeded lat…

There are so many different ways to save money on your grocery bill. Most of them include making homemade foods you would usually buy at the store in a box.  If you are spending money on pre made garlic breads you are really throwing away your extra dollars on convenience.  Here is a very easy, quick homemade garlic bread recipe I use for my family.  I came up with this because I was tired of spending so much money on a package of 6 garlic bread pieces. I can use a whole loaf of bread and have garlic bread stored in the freezer for multiple meals. Also, I actually have a dairy allergy and cannot even eat the the store bought garlic breads anymore.  So here is my families delicious garlic bread recipe.

Ingredients:
1 cup butter (if you have a dairy allergy be sure to use a dairy/lactose free butter).
5 cloves of garlic (minced)
a couple shakes of garlic salt
1 loaf of Italian or French bread
Cooking spray

Supplies:
Pan
Spoon
Knife
baking pan
parchment paper
plastic zip bags

There is one product that you will find in my house, purse and car in abundance: Lip Balms.  I am not a lipstick wearer, I rather have a great lip balm that helps smooth and protect my lips.  That is why I love the Carmex lip balm line so much.  They offer a wide variety of products and they all work wonders. I recently had the opportunity to review their latest lip balm... Pomegranate Ultra Smooth.  First of all it smelled great!  The Pomegranate Ultra Smooth also offers SPF 15 protection, is water resistant (up to 80 mins) and has 9 different moisturizers.  
Carmex lip products are my obsession and that is why I enjoy blogging about their products.

Did you know that  when it was proposed in 1916 it met fierce resistance from a a variety of sources including the Department of War, the Southern Pacific Railroad and ferry union workers. Luckily, six counties decided to foot the $35 million cost, an astronomical sum during the Great Depression, to build the world's longest suspension bridge at the time.Hex Cap Screws are high strength fasteners for bridge, highway, power water treatments and marine construction.  There were approximately 600,000 bolts used in each tower of the Golden Gate Bridge.  Like our many other components, such as hex head structural bolts, anchor bolts and hex coupling nuts, hex cap screws are made of the highest quality materials including stainless steel and zinc.

5 ways to protect yourself against debit card dangers… Save receipts to check against your monthly statement.Make sure all the charges are correct and there are no errors on the statement or any unauthorized charges.Don’t use a PIN that is too obvious, like your date of birth or 1234, and change it regularly.Sign up for online banking if you haven’t yet so that you can check your account often.Reduce your risk of ATM “skimming”, in which a device electronically swipes your data and PIN.Use machines at banks rather than in convenience stores, airports, gas stations, or any isolated location, which can be riskier.Use your debit card to make purchases only with trusted merchants, and don’t give your card number to anyone you don’t know over the phone or by e-mail.Source: Consumer Reports ShopSmart;)magazine, Ap…
